15. I think each person has their own "I've had it" point.

Everyone deals with it in the way that best suits their personality and situation. Many people think they would panic but when the moment comes they find that they are managing to stay calm and continue on. The English idea of "keep calm and carry on" is easier for some more than others.

I have found that I automatically go into a calm and rational frame of mind when something really bad happens out of the blue. I am the least calm person of anyone I know but for some reason I go on auto pilot and function extremely well when I need to.
